very bad. I wish to say that if
any such attempt at approach should
occur to either of the other Jurors it is
their duty to report the matter that the

The Prospect Grows More Serious as La
boring Iaterests Pool Their Issues.
New YORK, jan. 2G-The struggle Of
the striking loagshoremen that has to
certain extent become merged into the
coal handlers strike, was transferred TO 4
field o. broader proportions to-day when it
became known that the Knights of LABOR
hsd decided no coal of any sort should
ne handled in the port of New York
by union men, on the ground that
al the coal in the harbor hes been
put aboard barges by non-union men.
Thus the transferring of coal TO trans-At-
lGntlc and coast-wise steamships cannot
be undertaken by any union man
end the supply of coal to consumers in
this city, Brooklyn and other points
around the harbor of New York
cannot be repenished by union
men. The effect of carrying out
the order OF the Knights not to load cars
became immediately apparent all along
the river fronts. All the ocean and coast
wise steamship lines with few
exceptions suddenly found themselves
deserted by the union longshoremen
whenever there was coal TO be transferred
on the VESSELS. The exceptions
were few lines which employ their coal
shovelers by the week. The order not TO
handle ccal also extends TO union men
outside OF the port of New York, even as
far as New Orleans. 1t is said
that ualln longshoremen snd
Others are uEdyr obligation
not to load vessels with coal. With the
success Of the coal handlers the long
saoremen, it is stated, could
easily force the traus-At-
lapJic end coastwise steamship
lines 10 refuse TO handle Old Dominion
freight. The question of order
ing 8 general strike OF long
shoremen is being. considered.
SO II is said, by the executive board of
the Ocean Association of the L0ngshOre-
mems Union,and it is thought to beamong
the probabilities thst not less than 1000
men will be cut tomorrow.

L BPAVE GIRL BURNED.
Mss Lu!a Hunt@r in distinguishing q Fire,

Mss Lu!a HuHtsr in Distinguishing 4 FIRE,
IS HarribIy burned.
Special 20 the Gazette.
san ANTONIO, TEX, Jan. % Miss
Lula Hunter, eighteen years q age, &
daughter of DR.. G. L. Hunter, was so
seriously burned at noon to-day that the
gravest fears are entertained of her re-
covery. The unfortunate young lady
went into the psrlor, where fire had been
aeft burning in fireplace, and discovered
some of the drspery on the mantle piece
on fire. The first impulse was to ex-
tinguish the flames, and, picking
up g shawl, she attempted to
smother the blaze. The girls clothes
and underwear caught fire and was soon
in f4mes. The terrified lady rushed from
the house into the yard, screaming for
help. Her mother ran to her assistance.
The girl was gathered in the arms of the
mother and forced to the water nv
drant. The girl was thrown on the
ground and the wa er turned upon her,
which soon extinguished the blaze, but
not until nearly all the clothing she he'd
on was burned off and her flesh from the
waist down burned also.
